Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The use of membrane reactor in wastewater treatment gained interest for the past years due to its high-quality effluent. However, expensive membranes and high operational costs due to membrane fouling limit the wide application of this process. Research on fouling control by combining membrane use...Read more
Anaerobic Digestion of Municipal Wastewater (MWW) in a Periodic Anaerobic Baffled Reactor (PABR)
Zarkaliou A., Kougias C., (Corresponding) Papadopoulou K., Lyberatos G.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The scope of this work is to study the treatment of municipal wastewater in a Periodic Anaerobic Baffled Reactor (PABR). PABR is an innovative, high-rate bioreactor, designed to operate under high organic loadings. Apart from the Hydraulic Retention Time (HRT) an important operational parameter is...Read more

Comparison of the continuous fermentative hydrogen production efficiency from cheese whey in suspended and attached-biomass growth systems
ALEXANDROPOULOU M., LYBERATOS G., (Corresponding) ANTONOPOULOU G.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
In the present study, comparison of dark fermentation (DF) efficiency from cheese whey (CW) in an anaerobic UpFlow Column Reactor (AUFCR), filled with a support material for biomass attachment and a Continuous Stirred Tank reactor (CSTR), was assessed. The process efficiency and stability as well...Read more
